Hi all,
Thought you lot might be interested in this little quirk I found a short time ago.
Hereford to Birmingham, as might be widely known here, was previously valid with a Saver and Y-P before 10am, this was highly useful for getting on the 0737 or 0850 from Hereford. Since September, this was changed and it's now an Anytime Return, changing the fare rules. Which is very unfair on us Y-P holders, but that's LM for you.
Anyway, I thought I'd check the fares for my sister tomorrow. She was a bit surprised to learn about the new rules (she isn't a crank at all) and would have to pay £6.30 more than she would have done 3 months ago. So since I'm on t'internet I thought I'd check the adult rate. £15.70 for a non-discounted Anytime Return, same with a Y-P.
This surprised me a bit when I looked for tickets, here is the screen-grab:
It just makes no sense...
Thoughts?
